Streamlined Data Integration with TMSFNCChartDataGridAdapter

One of the most significant updates in this release is the TMSFNCChartDataGridAdapter, a new component designed to bind data seamlessly with the TMS FNC DataGrid. 

This adapter connects chart data with the DataGrid, facilitating smooth data transfer and synchronization between the two.

The TMSFNCChartDataGridAdapter enables data binding with FNC DataGrid columns, allowing you to connect your chart data with the grid through the adapter property. 

The BindSeries method further simplifies data handling by letting you add series in a single call. 

By linking TMS FNC Chart with TMS FNC DataGrid, developers can create powerful, interactive data-driven applications that bring datasets to life through dynamic charts.

Editor Layout Improvements for Optimized Workflow

The latest TMS FNC Chart introduces an improved editor layout that provides a more organized and user-friendly interface for editing chart elements. 

Multiple specific editors have been introduced to make searching and editing specific chart data more precise and efficient. 

This new layout enables you to view, edit, and arrange data with greater ease and clarity to streamline the customization process and create a more intuitive workflow.

Just enable the ShowEditors property in InteractionOptions and select which editors you want to show when clicking on the respective part of the chart. In case you want to modify when to show an editor you can use the OnShowEditor event to further customize this behavior.

VCL Styles are now supported within the TMS FNC Chart editors, enabling developers to maintain a consistent look and feel across their entire application. 

This feature allows you to apply VCL Styles to the chart editors, giving you full control over colors, fonts, and layout elements to ensure that your charts align with your application’s overall theme.

The enhanced layout supports smoother navigation and editing, allowing you to focus on structuring your data with fewer interruptions.

Other smaller improvements

- The new OnAreaClick event adds an interactive layer to TMS FNC Chart, allowing developers to define actions when specific chart areas are clicked.

- Some further improvements for High DPI support in VCL.

- Smoother, more visually appealing graphics by default in VCL with Anti-Aliasing.
